Glad shout thou be with blessings crowned, 10" With joy and peace thou shalt abound Yea, love with thee shall make his home Until thousee God's kingdom come. He 'shall forgive thy sins untold; Remember thou His love of old; Walk in. His way, His word adore, And keep His truth for evermore. Rightly considered a hymn is the very topmost flight of poetry. It ex- presses the deepest feelings of a hu- man soul, as it comes before • the throne of the -Supreme Being, the Al- mighty Father, Guardian and Judge of all humanity. As the holy angels in heaven utter their praises and prayers to the God in song, they wor- ship perfectly and acceptably, so fit- ted for the wings of a song hymns a waft the petitions, thanksgivings and y&praises to the same throne of Grace. 'F'A hymn is thus properly to be re- garded as the most lofty flower of poetry. Poets of the greatest renown like Wordsworth, Tennyson, Cowper, Burns, Milton, Herbert, Whittier and Montgomery, to mention only a few Mr haphazard of our language. Every civilized nation numbers its finest writers among its hymn -makers. John Masefield, the present Poet - Laureate of England is found among the hymn -writers with a cento from his poem: "The Everlasting Mercy," beginning: "0 Christ, Who holds the open gate," while his immediate pre- decessor, Dr. Robert Seymour Brid- ges, has over a score of hymns to his credit, the one printed herewith be- ing amongst them. He was the son of J. J. 134dg-es, a wealthy gentleman of 'Walmer, Kent, Eng., was born in 1844 and educated at Eton and Oxford. He went on to take a 'medical degree and practised medicine from 1874 to 1882, when he gave up his professional business to devote 'himself,to literature. His writ- ings attracted great attention from highly educated people, , for whom most of his secular poems and many of his plays were written. Like Roundell Palmer, afterwards Lord Selborne, borne, I .ord Chancellor of` England in the last century, Dr. Brid- ges set himself the task of compiling a hymn -book which should be a sort of pattern. for others, even though it never comes into popular use Lord Selborne's "Book of Praise" has nev- er been employed as a church hymn- al, but it is certain that' no other book excepting ,the Book of Psalms has ever approached its usefulness to hymnology. Its standard was high and in all respects commendable. The purely sentimental and the sim- ply popular hymns were not included, but only such hymns of merit from all countries and classes of people as expressed reverence, faith, confidence and agreed with the true Catholicity of Christianity. Modern additions and attempted improvements were as a rule discarded, and real words of the authors were sought after and print- ed. Dr. Bridges carried on such ideals, adapting them to suit the advances of modern needs, in the "Yattendon Hymnal," so called frons, the village in Berkshire, Eng., where he had chosen to live. Many of the hymns to suit modern social advances he wrote himself. Always bravely out- spoken, after as before his appoint- ment as Poet Laureate, he never con- sented to write anything for the pur- pose of attracting popularity! His poetic talents convinced him that he was meant to be a missionary to preach sincerity, honesty, and essen- tial loyalty to his fellows. And, as a poet, he had that one of the pro- phetic gifts which, while it gave him glances into the future, furnished him With the ideas needing to be impres- sed upon the present generation, in preparation for what was to come up- on the earth. That, it will be recalled, was of the essence of the Jewish pro- phecies of the Bible. Our hymn was written in the Queen's Jubilee year of 1897, and all that its writer ever explained about it was: "written for this restored time as sung in Welts Cathedral"! The tune was .Tanis' Canon (mode viii.), which has, however, become so close- ly attached to other hymns that it is seldom now used for Dr. Bridges' words. "The Yattendon Hymnal'" appeared n several parts or c.aitions between he years 1895-1899, with a few ad- iiions in later years, and has ever ince been drawn upon considerably y the most important and most, road -minded compilers of modern iymnals. Dr. Bridges died in 1930. Thomas'Tallis, the composer of the one known as Canon because its' tructure follows a certain set canon, r 'rule, . wherby its lines are repeated roma the air in other set lines of the tune, was' one of the notable mitsic- , ians who lived at the period when the ancient Church of England was recovering from its desertion by oth- er national churches who accompan- ied the Church of Roane, or by those who left the Catholic Church alto- gether.
